Water and/or steam leaking from the door gasket can be a sign of a blocked drain.
If the drain is blocked, hot water and steam can accumulate inside the compartment and
spill out when the door is opened and cause injury and equipment damage.
When checking inside the steamer always stand to the hinge side and back from the
steamer and open the door slowly.
7. Whenever opening door, especially when water or steam is leaking around gasket follow the warning below.
8. To evaluate whether a SteamChef is at normal performance: conduct the Egg Test. (Note: this test is
not valid for pressure steamers). A properly operating SteamChef will produce perfect hard-boiled eggs.
a. Turn on the SteamChef in Manual Mode, or for ON/OFF models set the selector to the ON
position. Preheat the SteamChef for 10 minutes.
b. After preheating:
1) Place a fresh egg on a perforated steam table pan in the middle of the oven compartment.
2) Close the door and set the Timer as directed by the Egg Test Size Chart.
3) Carefully remove the egg and place in a container with cold water running over it.
4) Let the egg cool under cold running water for 5 minutes.
5) After cooling, crack peel off the eggshell.
6) The result is a perfect hard-boiled egg.

9. Although, a SteamChef should not normally require descaling, the use of extremely “hard” water or
failure to follow consistently the cleaning procedures outlined in the Shutdown and Cleaning
Instructions in Chapter 3 may cause the accumulation of scale in the SteamChef. Should this occur
the supplementary descaling procedure outline in Chapter 4 “Other Maintenance – Periodic Descaling
of Water Reservoir” may be necessary. Notice: only qualified Cleveland Range authorized technicians
or trained onsite maintenance personnel may perform this service.
